Melt In Your Mouth Muffins
These delectable savories are the creation of Waldy Malouf of Manhattan's Rainbow Room
(as appeared in Food & Wine November 1996). These melt
in you mouth muffins go nicely
with soup, roasted onion-garlic jam, or just as a bread
substiute during your meal. For an
extra special treat, throw in some crumbled gorgonzola
along with the walnuts before
baking. For a photo & nutritional info please
